Today's calorie intake: 944 calories.
I checked out the fiber options in the grocery store today, and settled on "Fiber Choice plus Antioxidants" which is a sugar free chewable supplement that includes Vitamins A, C, and E. Two chewed tablets provide 4 grams of fiber and have 15 calories. Happily, Fiber Choice is also on the Calorie King menu. I prefer these chewable tablets over the horse pills that are difficult to swallow. (Come to think of it, I wonder if the large pills are hard to swallow because of an enlarged thyroid? Not sure.)
So now I am taking two supplements: Caltrate 600+D chewable tablets (2 per day, 10 calories and NOT on the CK menu) and Fiber Choice plus Antioxidants chewable tablets (2 per day, 4 g of fiber, 15 calories, but also adding about 40% of RDA for Vitamins A, C, & E). These seem like good, all-round supplements that couldn't do any harm.
I also went biking with my youngest daughter for about 20 minutes, plus some walking.
Thyroid natural supplements does work and fairly well too. It hasn't solve all my difficulty but it made a marked difference in how I felt. It is not a waste of your time or money.
